WAVE 2009

WAVE Awards – the Western Access Video Excellence Awards – are your opportunity to showcase your best work along with other community media producers in the Alliance for Community, Western Region's six states: Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Nevada and New Mexico.

The regional board queried its recent WAVE participants and responded by expanding categories to best reflect the work being produced in community media centers across the region.

Two new categories were created for 2009.

The Free Speech TV Community Activism Award is for programming that encourages people to get involved in positive social change. The winner will receive a national broadcast on Free Speech TV reaching more than 30 million U.S. households.

The WAVE Web Shorts is for submissions of ten minutes or less, uploaded to the internet so the community can view and vote on their favorite program. A special site for viewing and voting has been developed at wave.acmwest.org.

If you have any questions, contact the 2009 WAVE Coordinator Xoe Huffman at (707) 569-8785 x 325.

Entries are at the judging sites now and a list of finalists will be posted by the end of September.
